CCSM Whole Atmosphere Model Working Group

Dear WACCM Working Group Members,

The date of the next WACCM WG meeting will be March 6, 2009 in NCAR's Mesa Lab, in Boulder. The meeting will consist of presentations of and discussions on the state of WACCM, scientific results utilizing WACCM, updates on assessment simulations and plans for the next generation of WACCM. We are further interested in discussions of potential collaborative studies that can be conducted using WACCM or other whole atmosphere models and the possibility of inclusion of WACCM into larger-scale frameworks.

If you can attend and would like to make a short presentation on any of these topics or know of researchers who may be interested in attending, please send an email to either [ridley@umich.edu] or [marsh@ucar.edu]. More details and an agenda will be sent out closer to the date of the meeting.

CCSM Project

The Community Climate System Model (CCSM) is a fully-coupled, global climate model that provides state-of-the-art computer simulations of the Earth's past, present, and future climate states.

CCSM is sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Administration of the CCSM is maintained by the Climate and Global Dynamics Division (CGD) at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
